Yes, that's why I posted it.

Wouldn't be hilarious if this were a "silicon backwoods" startup running in some super-cheap locale, but in SF you'd be homeless for that.
Of course 5% equity isn't peanuts if you really believe in the company... and if your equity comes in a form that's protected against them diluting you to hell.

#5CrystalMD was founded by Bilal Farooqui, who is a YC alum (for his other company, iJigg). I wonder what PG would think about this.

Where on earth would $40k/year be a reasonable salary for a "senior software engineer"?

#7I think they expect 2.5 - 5.0% Equity to make up for the poverty level wage?

You could live in a small town decently well for $40k/year, and 5% equity could be worth millions if it was equity of the non-toilet-paper variety (some dilution protection) and the company did very well.
If I were to even consider such a position I'd involve a lawyer in examining the equity part, and I'd really have to believe in the company.

???
YC, like most other accelerators, gives a stipend that's only really enough for just out of college bachelor/ettes capable of metabolizing a full spectrum of nutrients from ramen noodles. This whole field is structurally biased toward people with no family who can move on a whim and sleep in a coffin.

His other dead company.
